DM
Applicability: Models 369D, 369E and 369F/FF Series.
Requirement: Action in accordance with MDHC SINs DN-185, EN-78 or FN-64 as applicable.
Compliance: Within 25 hours time in service after 9 November 1994, thereafter inspect at intervals not exceeding 100 hours time in service.
Background: There have been reports of the MS172209 lockwashers failing due to a flaw in the tang. Failure of the tang could allow the locknut to lose torque, and thereby causing eventual disengagement of the assembly resulting in loss of tail rotor control.
